Electrical Contractor Gladewater TX | Call Jimmy Rutland Electric

A comprehensive electrical inspection from our team includes checking your grounding system, main panel, and any installed surge protectors. In Gladewater, lightning strikes are a common cause of sudden electrical damage. We assess your home's specific vulnerabilities and can recommend and install whole-house surge protection to divert dangerous voltage spikes safely away from your appliances and wiring, preventing costly damage before it happens.

Warning signs include frequently tripped breakers, a burning smell near the attic, discolored outlets, or flickering lights. Attic wiring in East Texas can be stressed by extreme heat and humidity, leading to insulation breakdown and short circuits. Our electrical inspection service includes a thorough check of your attic wiring, junction boxes, and connections to identify any compromised areas that pose a fire risk, ensuring your home's safety.

Proactive inspections are key to preventing emergencies. Before our active storm seasons, we recommend an inspection to ensure your electrical system can handle potential lightning surges and that attic wiring hasn't been compromised by pests or heat over the previous year. This preventative step allows us to address small issues—like a weak ground connection or frayed attic wire—before they turn into major repairs or safety hazards during a storm.
